  Hi,

  I've been doing some google research and can't find too much on this topic. Does anyone have any code laying around which will read in a .SVG map file into some sql server 2005 tables?

  Basically I'm hoping to loop through the SVG file and parse out all the XML and perform an insert into sql server. I could use sql or .net to do this. I need to first figure out what the table structure should look like; column names, length, data type, keys, etc.

  I was thinking this has to be a fairly common thing to do, but I'm really striking out. Any help would be appreciated.

  My ultimate goal is to produce a map of Massachusetts on a web page and background color the towns of my choosing on the fly.Does anyone know of an easier method to do this? Seems SVG might work the best from what I've seen.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thanks,

  Paul
